When my husband Bill Villa's daughter Sheena Villawas brutally killed by Robert LaBarre on her 25th birthday in March 2006, Bill, quite naturally, wanted Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin to charge Robert LaBarre with the crime LaBarre had so obviously committed against his daughter Sheena: third degree murder.

Malice may be found where the defendant consciously disregarded an unjustified and extremely high risk that his actions might cause serious bodily injury.

Readers, if you have any lingering doubts about the merits of "Bill's case" for the appropriate charge of third degree murder in his daughter's sudden and violent death, read Sheena Villa's 3rd Degree Murder.As you will see, DA Jim Martin actually had two (2)legally viable avenues to a successful third degree murder prosecution in this case, and we believe DA Jim Martin owed it to the Commonwealth, to Lehigh County, and to Sheena Villa and her family to at least try to get a third degree murder conviction against Sheena's remorseless killer.

But famously arrogant and blustery-intimidating bully DA Jim Martin refused to even try. And as you saw in paragraph 11 of Sheena Villa's 3rd Degree Murder, Bill adroitly caught DA Jim Martin's longtime Chief Deputy DA and current Lehigh County judicial candidate (!) Adra Renee Smith flat-out lying to Sheena's family regarding why DA Jim Martinwould not file the appropriate charge of third degree murder against Robert LaBarre. There was no "trend of reversals," Renee.

As we see it, DA Jim Martin had no legitimate reason for not charging Robert LaBarre with third degree murder, and Martin's abuse of power play was purely socio-politico, crooked colluding cronyism at its worst:Robert LaBarre's father is Allentown attorney Don LaBarre,a partner in the powerful and influential Allentown law firm Gross McGinley.

Last month, when DA Jim Martin faced an unexpected ballot petition challenge, who did DA Jim Martin cling on to for his legal defense? Malcolm J. Grossand Patrick J. Reillyfrom Gross McGinley. And if this crony cozy connection doesn't speak (scream) volumes to you, then you're deaf (and blind) on purposelike one of Gross McGinley's

longtime clients, The Morning Call "newspaper,"and Morning Call collusion seems to be the best explanation for why the public was never informed about Robert LaBarre's Killer Vacation in Belize and an array of other jaw-dropping irregularities in DA Jim Martin's attempted special handling of Robert LaBarre's case ...

... like DA Jim Martin's secretlymoving up a pivotal Robert LaBarre court hearing by 10 days, and informingLaBarre's family about it, but not telling Sheena's family about it. This was an11th hour try at fixing the case with us not present in court to protest it. Read Martin's Tricky Secret Switcheroosfor all the dirty facts on DA Jim Martin's attempted (but thwarted) Robert LaBarre case fix, and thwarted thanks (only) to an anonymous phone tip! Much too close a call.

Readers, obviously, my brave husband Bill Villa has DA Jim Martin's number, and The Morning Call's number. Billhas also been exhibiting relentlessly courageous civic-mindedness in informing and warning our community about the crooked and incompetent power mongers around here, just in case you might need to outmaneuver DA Jim Martin and The Morning Call "newspaper" to get justice in Lehigh County one day. God forbid.

Examples:Defiling Sheena and her parents. Praising Robert LaBarre. Threatening to sabotage Sheena's then upcoming wrongful death litigation.

2.Lie (on sworn affidavits) about Bill's measured, appropriate, and defensive responses to his provocations, so they'd appear (in the falsely sworn affidavits) to have been "threatening."

Example: Bill had emailed Najarian politely requesting an apology for Najarian's having created the "Troll" blog. Bill stated that if he didn't get an apology he'd come after Najarian, legally, with "both barrels." In his "criminal harassment" complaint, Najarian left out the "legally" part and deceitfully and maliciously implied that Bill was threatening him with a double-barreled shotgun. DA Jim Martin could have gotten clarification on this from Bill w/ a simple phone call and fax. Ditto AG Tom Corbett's crack "investigators."

3. File the phony "harassment" charges w/ a Magisterial District Judge who is also a personal pal, Slatington's Rod Beck; get District Attorney Jim Martin to approve the "harassment" charges against Bill; get a conviction against Bill via pally/Judge Rod Beck; incarcerate (and silence) Bill; get rewarded by an appreciative DA Jim Martin.

Instead of tossing Dave Najarian's frivolous and vexatious "criminal" complaint against Bill in the trash can where it belonged, DA Jim Martin seized upon the Bill Villa vendetta opportunity and cleverly cited a "conflict of interest"andarranged for Dave Najarian's transparently meritless "criminal" complaint against Bill to be investigated and (incredibly) approved by the Office of the Pennsylvania State Attorney General and now Governor Tom Corbett, who DA Jim Martin contributes many thousands of campaign dollars to each year from his Committee To Re-Elect Jim Martin slush fund [Source: Lehigh County Voter Registration].To repeat: Pennsylvania State Attorney General Tom Corbett's office investigated and approved Dave Najarian's "criminal"complaint that Bill Villa had (accurately) called Dave Najarian a "pussy" in a 2008 blog comment. Yup.

" ... try not to participate ... well aware of his history ... my last comments [and yes they are over] were the most accurate. He is a person who loves to agitate and stir the pot with half truths and innuendo ... thank you Bill. Again, I am so sorry for what happened to your daughter." Emails: 8/2/14
